Which one best fits the answer ?

mikewwe13:

@Vocaloid

Vocaloid:

statement 1: AB congruent to BD statement 2 BD congruent to CE using the transitive property we have the general rule A = B B = C therefore A = C try to apply this logic to statements 1 and 2 to get the next blank

mikewwe13:

CE AC

Vocaloid:

|dw:1536118417209:dw|

Vocaloid:

"AB is congruent to BD" that's like saying "A = B" "BD is congruent to CE" that's like saying "B = C" so the conclusion "A = C" must therefore be "AB is congruent to CE"

Vocaloid:

statement 4 says "given" so we go back to the original statements to see what was originally given CE is congruent to AC is the only thing that works for blank 4

Vocaloid:

statement 5: we use the original statements AB congruent to BD BD congruent to CE CE congruent to AC therefore AB congruent to AC do you remember which property this is?

mikewwe13:

transitive

Vocaloid:

good so the remaining blank 6 must be isosceles so to recap: AB is congruent to CE CE is congruent to AC transitive isosceles definition

Vocaloid:

statement 1 " <1 and <2 are supplementary therefore their angles must add up to 180 so which statement best reflects this idea?

mikewwe13:

m<1 + m<3 = 180

Vocaloid:

awesome statement 4 states that the bisector from step 3 creates two equal angles so which statement would this be?

mikewwe13:

substitution property

Vocaloid:

keyword: bisector

mikewwe13:

bisector i thought at first

Vocaloid:

alright, so the bisector gives us two equal angles <2 and <3 therefore we can ~substitute~ m<3 into m<2 to get m<1 + m<3 = 180 as the statement and "substitution property" as the reason

Vocaloid:

so to recap: m<1 + m<2 = 180 bisector def. m<1 + m<3 = 180 substitution property

mikewwe13:

i thought the 3rd was the first wasn't it ?

Vocaloid:

remember, the first sentence says that <1 and <2 are supplementary therefore the first statement must be m<1 and m<2 add up to 180.

mikewwe13:

oh ok i see

mikewwe13:

Vocaloid:

this is from the unit test. I recognize the question + purple border; :/

mikewwe13:

this is a different question

mikewwe13:

it doesn't have the unit test on top

mikewwe13:

oh i see they might've put this question in this one

mikewwe13:

that test is over and done with, this is a new one

Vocaloid:

I don't feel comfortable answering this

mikewwe13:

i can prove it

Vocaloid:

well if you've already taken the test you should be able to re-use your solution then

mikewwe13:

this one has the unit test on top of it

mikewwe13:

and this one doesn't

Vocaloid:

it's not showing up for me

mikewwe13:

there it doesn't have the unit test on top of it

mikewwe13:

but the other test was wrong

Vocaloid:

can you please show me the entire screen?

mikewwe13:

ok

mikewwe13:

i hope this is clear for you

Vocaloid:

alright :/ for AD being parallel to BC this is because they are opposite sides on a parallelogram therefore what choice would fit best?

mikewwe13:

definition of parallelogram

Vocaloid:

awesome then going from <1 to <2 to m<1 = m<2 this is the angle congruence (if angles are equal their measurements are as well) now let's move to the right column, if <2 and <3 are supplementary they add up to 180, right? so which statement best reflects this idea?

mikewwe13:

definition of supplementary

Vocaloid:

hm not quite notice how the box already has "definition of supplementary" on it we want the statement that says "angle 2 and 3 add up to 180" which one is closest to this idea?

mikewwe13:

m<2 + m<3 = 180

Vocaloid:

good then for the box that says "substitution property" we take the expression m<2 + m<3 = 180 and substitute m<1 instead of m<2, what would be the result of that?

mikewwe13:

angle congruence

Vocaloid:

we already used angle congruence remember, when you ~substitute~ something in for another thing, you replace it so if we "substitute" m<1 for m<2, we replace "m<2" with "m<1" giving us m<1 + m<3 = 180 as the statement

Vocaloid:

for the last blank we just use the one that's left, definition of supplementary

Vocaloid:

so to recap: 1. AD parallel to BC --> definition of parallelogram 2. definition of supplementary --> m<2 + m<3 = 180 3. m<1 + m<2 ---> angle congruence 4. substitution property --> m<1 + m<3 = 180 5. last blank --> definition of supplementary

mikewwe13:

well one was wrong but is 92 good for a score ?

mikewwe13:

that's a B

Vocaloid:

hm :S

Vocaloid:

a little lower than I was expecting but not the end of the world

mikewwe13:

well it ain't bad but it's not the best
